Obama’s Support For Our Troops….

Newsbusters has reported that the father of Sgt. Ryan David Jopek had requested Obama to stop wearing his son’s KIA bracelet.

Barack Obama played the “me too” game during the Friday debates on September 26 after Senator John McCain mentioned that he was wearing a bracelet with the name of Cpl. Matthew Stanley, a resident of New Hampshire and a soldier that lost his life in Iraq in 2006. Obama said that he too had a bracelet. After fumbling and straining to remember the name, he revealed that his had the name of Sergeant Ryan David Jopek of Merrill, Wisconsin.

Shockingly, however, Madison resident Brian Jopek, the father of Ryan Jopek, the young soldier who tragically lost his life to a roadside bomb in 2006, recently said on a Wisconsin Public Radio show that his family had asked Barack Obama to stop wearing the bracelet with his son’s name on it. Yet Obama continues to do so despite the wishes of the family.

I am deeply disturbed by this. Although this is not a new occurrence, the families of dead soldiers have had their request for their deceased loved ones names to be removed from anti war exhibits coldly denied:

    Uhh…hey guys, why are we even bothering with him/her anymore? If this person cannot even spell or punctuate correctly, then I’m guessing she’s no different than those women who said after the debate that Obama never stuttered. Let’s just know him/her as one of the brainless trolls of the website – perhaps the saddest one if this person is using two accounts to stick up for themselves.

    I love it!

    I agree with Jasmine. Barack Obama did NOTHING WRONG!

    And she is right that Barack was just proving a point! He wasn’t doing anything else. And this whole situation DOES show how hyporcrites are in america. And as for wordsmith, like jasmine said, she was just speaking HER opinion. LEAVE HER ALONE!

    As if your posting style weren’t obvious enough:

    And as for you Leah, I don’t belive she was talking to you was she? Unless you and wordsmith are the same people. LMAO!

    You’re making this waaaay too easy:

    jasmine=david

    Thanks for your comments. We needed some laughs, today. Some of your material almost brought me to tears! Thank you, thank you, thank you! Obama supporters are the best!

    Are you really trying to sell to us that you are two different people? The spelling errors are exactly the same….and there are plenty of errors.

    Of course, it’s not just the same spelling mistakes and grammar. It’s also the same temperament, same ranting and insults.

    I know I shouldn’t even bother wasting my time on reasoning with you, but I just can’t help myself. I’m just a nice guy like this. So…..

    Also it has been proven that the ex-husband happend to be a MCAIN SUPPORTER!

    Suprise!….surprise!

    How is that some sort of ace-in-the-hole revelation? I guessed he was probably a McCain supporter and the mom is a known Obama supporter. Regardless, both of them appear to want Obama to stop using their son’s memory for political gain. Brian Jopek’s wishes should be respected every bit as much as Tracy Jopek’s wishes….and they appear to be on the same page, regarding this matter. So where’s the “gotcha”?

    Thank you for your courtesy, Jasmine David. I eagerly await your kind and thoughtful reply.

    Oh… do allow me to keep you up on just how rude I am to those polite little Obama supporter wizards that show up with talking points, and expect to be fawned over… Heaven help him if I genuinely let loose my wrath….LOL

    You can start reading here with his knock down dead entry It goes on from there.

    But I warn you… “divide” has left for greener pastures. And insists that if we children wish to carry on an “adult” conversation, we must come visit him at his pathetic, uninformative little blog.

    To check out our prior “childish” thread conversations, you of course go back to the top. Musta been over his head…

    no reply? No, “Thanks for making things clear”? No, “Gosh, I didn’t realize how misled I was”?

    Perhaps one voted no because one actually preferred a more honestly socialist response, in which the federal government nationalized these banks or their transactions, and thus made voters not just indirect beneficiaries of any money that might be recouped though the recovery of Wall Street banks, but actual owners of the assets in question themselves. ,
